extension of such exemption benefits, then it should raise the matter directly
with OFM.

• Unless otherwise determined by OFM, the effective date of OFM’s authorization of an exemption from real estate taxes is the date the property deed in question is signed or transferred.

• States, counties, municipalities, and territories may establish additional procedures to ensure the proper extension of such exemption benefits, provided that:

Æ such procedures, including the establishment and use of any forms, serve only to facilitate the state, county, municipality, or territory’s extension of exemption benefits to TECRO and not as
a means to determine the TECRO’s entitlement to the exemption benefit associated with a property on the basis of the property’s authorized use for the performance of TECRO’s authorized functions, which determination is
committed to the sole discretion of the Department of State; and

Æ the state, county, municipality, or territory obtain written approval from the Director of OFM/PTSB confirming that the proposed procedural requirements do not violate or infringe on any benefits, privileges, or immunities enjoyed by TECRO.

Finally, I further determine that any state or local laws to the contrary are hereby preempted.

The exemption from real estate taxes provided by this designation and determination shall apply to taxes that have been or will be assessed against TECRO’s primary office, one of its subsidiary offices, the head of such an office, a component of such an office, or the authorities on Taiwan with respect to property subject to this determination, and shall nullify any existing tax liens with respect to any covered property. This determination shall not require the refund of any taxes previously paid by TECRO’s primary office, one of its subsidiary offices, the head of such an office, a component of such an office, or the authorities on Taiwan regarding such property. These
actions are not exclusive and are independent of alternative legal grounds that support the tax exemptions
afforded herein.

The actions taken in this Designation and Determination are necessary to protect the interests of the United States and to adjust for costs and procedures of obtaining benefits for AIT.

Dated: March 9, 2014. Patrick F. Kennedy, Under Secretary for Management.
